Denny’s announced today the transfer of ownership of 5 company restaurants in the Upstate area to Craig Herman, the former head of company operations who left to become a Denny’s franchisee. The transaction is anticipated to occur in late September with the sale of the Anderson, Boiling Springs, Duncan, Greenville and Spartanburg Denny’s restaurants to Herman.

‘We are very enthusiastic about this change and view it as positive for the restaurants’ employees and for the community,’ said Nelson Marchioli, Denny’s President and Chief Executive Officer. ‘Craig is a respected leader who already has strong ties to this community. We are confident that under his direction, the Upstate Denny’s will continue to do well, making this change good for Denny’s; good for the Upstate economy; and most importantly, good for our guests.’
